I am still enjoying cooking with the sweet potatoes from our fall harvest. There are still a few nice-sized ones left; so I grabbed a couple to make some bread.The sweet potato bread turned out great. I often find pumpkin bread to be overly moist and sweet. This was perfect, the texture was great and…

Apple Latkes
Latkes aren’t just for lunch and dinner, we found a fun new way to start our day with latkes – Apple Latkes for breakfast! These latkes by Nigella Lawson are so good that you are going to want them at other times of the year. Then you can call them apple fritters or apple pancakes….
Puffed Oven Pancake with Brown Sugar-Banana Sauce
If there aren’t enough other treats around, how about a breakfast treat? I always thought the baked pancakes would be a lot of work, but this was actually a lot less work for me than making batches of regular pancakes. And everyone was so impressed! Although my waistline won’t like it, this may become a…
Cinnamon Roll Pancakes
I promised to share the good, the bad and the ugly…here is a recipe I tried that tasted fantastic, but I could not get it to look right no matter how I changed my technique. First, I thought the hole in my plastic bag was too big… Then, that the cinnamon filing was too liquid……
Pumpkin Pancakes
Inevitably, there is leftover pumpkin. And usually it is just the right amount to make some pumpkin pancakes for breakfast. Yum! We like our pumpkin pancakes topped with maple syrup and some cinnamon sugar, a real treat to start the day. Of course, you can multiply the recipe to match the amount of pumpkin or…
Apple Oat Bran Pancakes with Streusel Topping
A few weeks ago, I was able to go apple picking with all my children. Now that the girls are adults, it is rare to get all of them together, and even more rare to be able to all be together on an excursion. But on this cold but sunny day, we all went to Milburn Orchards…
Peach Bread
In case you did not know, southern Delaware is peach country. We grow some tasty peaches. And this year they are particularly good. I have a cookbook from my favorite all-natural farm, Highland Orchards. In it is a recipe for peach bread by Elaine Linton, the farmer’s mother. I made the bread exactly as it…
Summer’s Bounty “Shakshouka”
I now have patty pan squash and carrots coming out of my ears! It seems like every dinner starts with a cutting board like the one below. My first night back to work after the California trip, I returned from Philadelphia and just stared at the produce in my kitchen, trying to come up with…
Kale and Sweet Potato Hash with Poached Eggs
It has been a strange spring in my garden. The vegetables that usually grow well, such as sugar snap peas, were basically failures and the ones I usually struggle with, such as cauliflower and the kale below, have done well. So dishes I had been looking forward to making will have to wait until next year as I…
Cammy’s Hide and Seek Muffins
Our “top chef” agreed to come back to the kitchen to make the Hide and Seek Muffins from Mollie Katzen’s Pretend Soup cookbook. My strawberry plants are still young, so they are producing sweet berries, just not that many. So, we used a mix of strawberries from our garden and other local strawberries. Cracking eggs may be…
